A privately owned Surinamese regional airline operating scheduled services between Paramaribo, the Caribbean and northern South America, primarily with Fokker 70 aircraft.
About Fly All Ways
Fly All Ways is a privately owned Surinamese scheduled airline based in Paramaribo. Established in 2002, it began commercial passenger operations in 2016 and flies under IATA code 8W and ICAO code PWF. Its identity is that of a small regional operator rather than a large national network carrier, with services designed principally around links between Suriname, nearby Caribbean markets and northern South America.
The airline’s primary operating base is Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport, the main international gateway serving Paramaribo. Its published timetable links Suriname with destinations including Georgetown, Kingston, Havana, Santiago de Cuba, Camagüey and Santo Domingo. Some flights operate as linked sectors through intermediate cities, so travellers should check whether a journey is nonstop and review the current schedule carefully before arranging separate connections.
Fly All Ways has traditionally operated the Fokker 70, a compact regional jet suited to relatively thin routes that may not support larger aircraft. Its published schedule identifies this aircraft type on scheduled services, although fleet availability can influence individual flights. The onboard product is comparatively straightforward, with an emphasis on standard regional economy travel rather than the multiple cabins, extensive entertainment systems and broad service choices associated with major long-haul airlines.
Fly All Ways is not a member of Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld, and it does not operate a widely established frequent-flyer programme. Passengers therefore should not expect the routine mileage earning, status recognition or reciprocal lounge privileges offered by global alliance carriers. Connections onto other airlines generally need closer attention, particularly when tickets are issued separately and baggage cannot be checked through to the final destination.
The airline’s main strength is its ability to provide direct or linked regional services between markets that often have limited air connectivity. Its small scale is also a practical challenge: frequencies can be limited, itineraries may involve intermediate stops, and disruption can leave fewer same-day alternatives than on larger carriers. Travellers benefit from allowing generous connection time, confirming the operating schedule shortly before departure and keeping essential items in their cabin baggage.
Good to know
Flying with Fly All Ways — what to expect
Check Every Sector
Some Fly All Ways itineraries continue through intermediate Caribbean cities. Confirm the complete routing and whether passengers remain onboard or undergo transit formalities.
Limited Flight Frequencies
Many routes do not operate daily, so disruption may mean a longer wait for the next service. Avoid tight connections, especially when using separately issued tickets.
Regional Jet Cabin
The Fokker 70 is smaller than the aircraft used by major long-haul carriers. Cabin storage and onboard amenities may be more limited, so pack compactly and set expectations accordingly.
Verify Baggage Terms
Baggage allowances can depend on the fare and route. Check the allowance shown on the booking confirmation before travelling rather than relying on another airline’s rules.
Reconfirm Your Schedule
Schedules on a small regional network can change. Recheck departure times, operating stops and airport information directly with the airline before leaving for the airport.
